Abstract

As wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are being developed for a wide range of application fields of real-time monitoring and control, a design overview seems important so as to investigate alternative communication aspects while treating the WSN as a whole system. As applications become more demanding the need to consider also deployment constraints and application particularities on top of the commonly used network factors, leads to new integrated design methodologies for addressing all complexity degrees of such systems. In this paper, problems concerning the design aspect of today's WSN applications are presented, which are reasoned to multiple impact factors, to accent design directions and options.
